What I think when you think I care
Haha actually any mk4 tongue.gif. But the baltic blue one is a TT with 50k on it. It looks like it just rolled off the showroom floor . Nick, the guy with the 4runner, did the same thing im doing right now. He sold his GSR and bought a 4 runner so he could save up for a mk4 sooner, and now he is about to pick one up, so now I'm all alone with the is300s frown.gif lol.



That picture was a local meet that is put on by a local ice cream shop that comes twice a year. In the summer it was 300+ cars, bunch of vipers and NSXs, lambos, a few ferarris, subis, evos, a few mk4s, and a bunch of hondas. This year it was 50+ hondas, a few bimmers, and us toyotas, horrible turnout :'(. During the meet some honda douchers came over and told us nice cars and asked what conversion I had done to my supra.... <3



Speaking of which, this showed up, anyone wanna guess the car and conversion?

NA Italia kit, no?

I don't know much about mx5s ferdi, so I cant comment. It was a very clean conversion though.
Not an Italia kit, some type of Cobra look-alike indeed.

I like the flippy headlights best.

Looks like a decent pickup. If you want to get rid of your leather seats for some mad jayeeem tyte seats let me know. What meet was that?
That was the lollicup meet in roseville. We have supra meets every few weeks in the Rocklin Roseville area.

So my day started all good and whatnot:

Started doing things like this:

(That is my fathers workbench before you start making petroleum jelly comments yah asses)

Then I go to start it to move it back into position...Dead...What evs probably drained from the radio being on. Jump it, drive it over to its spot. Tach isnt working, no gauges or warning lights turn on. Then open the door(car on mind you) and it starts dinging that the door is open...wtf? Go to roll up the windows and close the sun roof. Non work. Go unhook the negative battery cable, car dies...


Leave the car open and come inside defeated....I'm think possibly the alternator is bad or the fuse is gone. Any help?

We had an alternator on a nissan maxima go out and the electronics went haywire. radio and dash lights faded etc. Put the battery on a charger, trickle charger all night or whatever. When you start the car with a FULL battery, if it acts good you know what was up. If it acts like it did, start looking at other things. That would be my mode of thought anyway.
Sound just like when the fuse forthe alt fuse blew on minew
if that's what happen it's only like a 4 Buck fix

i would check your grounds just to be safe that's just me tho I had a bad ground and the car wouldn't even turn over
Well I'm not completely sure why... Haha my alt fuse was fine, alt was putting out 14.3. My gauge fuse was popped for some reason so i replaced that, charged up teh battery, now its 100%...Who knows, but I'm happy that its fixed.


Today was a VERY good day for the celica. Got it running well, and started installing and fixing all sorts of things.

Because racecar:





Tomorrow the 5901 goes in smile.gif

Good progress so far, Andrew! Hopefully it passes smog next time.

Miss the Supra yet or are you pretty happy with the Celica?

I honestly don't. The targa top and the sound that it emitted were awesome. But was not worth the frustration and cost of the damn thing to me. I was only ever able to use the power once and a great while and never pushed it to hard because I was afraid of blowing it up. I can't wait for a mk4 as it will be a mixture of the mk3 and celica smile.gif. The celica is just great, just like my old one. I learned SOOOOOO many lessons on my last 2 cars, but it seems like I've finally gotten everything right and this car is perfect so far.

Plans:
Paint the rim spokes and outter rim black(ill do them in plastidip so i can just rip it off if I don't like it
Paint the front bumper
Sound system(this may come sooner depending on what i can find)
Some sort of lowering, possibly coils
Riser blocks
Spacers
Engine refresh and possibly RHD


After that ill be done with the car forever most likely frown.gif. As I think at that point it will be pretty epic in every sense. But sadly when its big brother comes into the picture most everything will be sold and the car will go into full DD mode(One of the big reasons the RHD most likely wont happen kindasad.gif ).

Why on earth would you do RHD?

What I think when you think I care
Because I have all the pats for it, and the uniqueness of it would be amazing.
